Quiet farm house nestled away on a 2 acre orchard. This house is the perfect place to get away from the pressures of the day to day grind! Come enjoy the peace and tranquility we have to offer on our little farm!

The space is decorated with a lot of unique artwork, some from my personal collection, and some from local artists (artists have been invited to display their work for sale in the house).
The house will be professionally cleaned after every guest to assure each person of a fresh start.

The property is surrounded by trees including, redwoods, fir, oak, maple, madrone, and manzenita(URL HIDDEN) It's a short drive to the local swimming hole(website hidden)_Outdoors/Parks/Soda_Springs_Reserve.aspx, on your way stop by the Annapolis Winery tasting room! It's a short 7 mile drive to coastal access on The Sea Ranch.
We are just far enough away from the coast for easy access, but far enough away to enjoy the warmth of the sun!
We are also just thirty minutes away from the Anvil Ranch, a convenient stay for someone attending one of their beautiful events!

We had a great time at Calico Pony Farm House! Roshshanah was a very kind and welcoming hostess. She gave us plenty of space but made sure we had everything we needed and then some. The complimentary fresh eggs and fruit from the property were delicious! We grilled, made smores over the outdoor fire pit, played fetch with the friendly farm dog Sadie, and were endlessly entertained by the cute fluffy ducklings. By day the guys went ab diving 20 mins away and the girls checked out the local flavor in Gualala. The house is about a 10 minute drive off the 1, and has no television or phone reception (except for Verizon). That might deter some from staying here, but for us it was a much needed escape from the constant chatter of the real world. I was more relaxed and at peace on the farm than I have been in a long time. Thank you Roshshanah for a memorable and regenerative stay, we hope to return soon!

The Calico Pony is truely a wonderful place. It's simplicity is its greatest strength and we loved the wood stove and cozy living room. The farm is alive with friendly farm animals and Sadie, the sweetest little dog. Roshshana delivered healthy farm fresh eggs every morning and we loved making delicious breakfasts with them. A short drive through the woods takes you to the Pacific Ocean and its majestic cliffs. Would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get away from their fast paced life and enjoy the simplicity of farm life and being surrounded by nature.

Dale2017-02-21T00:00:00Z

Lovely place, the house is big comfortable and nicely equipped. Roshshanah was very welcoming and even included some lovely champagne. The setting is very quiet. There were 36 cute ducklings when we were there, but they grow up, so don't count on it. The dog was very friendly and often came and asked to play fetch if we were outside. Three cats were more reserved. About 15 mins drive to PCH1 and another 15 to Gualala. Twofish bakery at the Sea Ranch retail is the closest shop (about 15 mins).

Winton2016-05-31T00:00:00Z

Wonderful farmhouse experience! We are so glad to have had the chance to spend 5 beautiful days in this house! Nestled among the mountain over the Sea Ranch, this house allowed us to have a real rustic experience with the ability to enjoy the beauty of the beaches and bluffs of the north coast. Roshshana was an amazing host, atuned to our every nead. A lovely welcome basket welcomed us and the table was fully set. Fresh eggs, fresh hard cider, pony rides, an fully set up outdoor fire-pit all added to the experience; ducks and chickens roaming the yard, and a super friendly dog always happy to play with my kids completed the experience. We spent every morning down at the beach, walking the bluff trail or hanging out in Gualala, afternoons were relaxing at the farm. So perfect we asked to stay an extra night. I can't recommend more this house and this host for those looking for a truly different experience than your typical cookie cutter vacation rental!

Nicolas2015-11-27T00:00:00Z

Relaxing location, with a fantastic hostess. Perfect for adults and kids alike. We thought we would spend all of the time at the beach, but the property was so perfect, we just spent all of our time hanging out at the house. Loved to eat at the big picnic table outside, make smores in the fire pit and watch the animals.

Lisa2017-05-28T00:00:00Z

This was such a lovely weekend get away! Leading up to the trip Roshshanah was very responsive and helpful with our planning. On arrival we were delighted to see all of the small details that she had left in place for our stay- wine, fixings for S'mores, guides for our stay and even a pass for the state beaches. Our toddler was in love with the property and the animals...and Roshshanah. She enjoyed exploring the little seating areas, swinging on hr hammock and picking flowers and lemons. The beach was only 15 minutes away. At first I was a little hesitant about staying at the farm instead of in sea ranch but being so close to the beach let us experience both peaceful country living and the coast. I would highly recommend the farm to others with young kids.

Anita2017-05-01T00:00:00Z

Roshshanah is great! You will be well accommodated if you stay here, 100%! Any question or small request we had, Roshshanah was very quick to respond and was great. She couldn't have been a better host. This is a great place for a getaway from the city. It's in the woods - remember to bring bug spray. There's a grocery store about 15 minute drive away, a nearby watering hole for swimming (I'd recommend water shoes for the rocky parts), hiking routes/beaches (for hiking more than swimming) along the coast, and wineries and a couple restaurants within ~15 minutes drive. But don't let that distract from how relaxing and enjoyable it is to grill, roast marshmallows, and just unwind at the AirBnb as well.

Sean2017-07-04T00:00:00Z

Shanna is a really thoughtful host. She is there to great you when you arrive and even has fresh eggs, vegetables and wine for guests. If you're looking to get away for a weekend this is a convenient spot in beautiful area. There is a cozy fireplace, full kitchen and comfortable living room to kick back in. Two thumbs up!

Wonderful Ocean view! Great escape for the summer. Private home on a quiet cul de sac. Beautiful coastal location, just a 10 minute walk to the bluffs. South Sea Ranch Vacation Close to the Sea Ranch Lodge

Quiet, original Sea Ranch home. The view of the sea from the living is gorgeous! Beautiful star gazing on clear nights. Very private hillside location ideal for a romantic getaway.
We are located near the Moonraker Recreation Center. It has a heated pool, sauna, and tennis court. Self serve. Bring ID with your guest pass.

Bike rentals are available at the lodge and the area is popular for hiking. Shopping in Gualala is 8 miles from Sea Ranch Lodge, and Jenner is 23 miles from the property.
Fort Ross State Historic Park is a 20 minutes' drive from Timber Cove Resort and many wineries are within 30 minutes; drive away. Tide pools and whale watching opportunities located are nearby.

The house is really confortable and welcoming. It has 2 bedrooms, a mezzanine with a single bed and also a separate studio, so it can easily accommodate up to 7 people. The view on the sea from the living room and the hot tub is gorgeous !!! Marisa and LaJuan were really helpful each time we need an information. I highly recommend this house.

Myriam2017-08-15T00:00:00Z

As advertised, this residence has everything for a great north coast getaway. wonderful view, seascapes, sunsets, and the occasional deer and turkeys wandering around. The living room is very comfortable for all this viewing. I found the kitchen suitable for my needs; I was able to make dinner and breakfast with no issues. Great food shopping in The Surf Market, Gualala, to the north . Super television and channel selection. Fine dining can be had at The Lodge, and I have dined there many times in the past. In the future, this house will be one I look for. Easy unpacking from your car, pulling into the paved fri e right behind the house. I had no issues with HVAC, and hot water is ample. I hope you enjoy this house as much as I did. Hosts Marissa and Lajuan are helpful and readily available if I needed them.

David2017-09-05T00:00:00Z

Gorgeous views, great living space open to kitchen, living room and dining. Beautiful deer and wild turkeys roaming, redwoods galore, sunsets for ever. Loved this place and our stay, would love to come back again! The area is incredible, beyond expecations!

Zhena2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

I really enjoyed my stay in the "serene" area that is Sea Ranch. This home has an excellent view of the ocean, and it had all the comfortable amenities that I needed. Will definitely consider coming back again!

Alec2017-08-18T00:00:00Z

Beautiful location, amazing views, classic sea ranch architecture

Sebastian2017-09-06T00:00:00Z

The home is one of the special Sea Ranch getaways...excellent price for such a large (URL HIDDEN) has a special view of Abalone Bay and of course, it has the lovely sound of the surf as drift off to sleep in some very comfortable beds. Though an older home with some dated furniture, comfort is excellent as everything is well constructed in the Sea Ranch tradition. The host was available to take care of our needs but we had privacy and serenity. The high point is sitting in the spa and watching the stars as the surf crashes in the distance. At such a reasonable cost for the area, I will be back.

Patricia 2017-08-27T00:00:00Z

The place is gorgeous, quiet and comfortable, and it has a great view to the sunset. LaJuan was very helpful and made us feel like we were at home! I highly recommend this place.

Paulo2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and highly recommend Marisa/LaJuan's house. They stayed in contact by email, being available for any questions. The hot tub is a nice feature. the view of the ocean is great, and the house is comfortable.

This is a unique Sea Ranch house, there no other house that offers the privacy and views like this house.
The back of the house has a commanding view of the ocean. You can sit in the hot tub and see and hear the waves crash on the rocks.
The house was recently renovated. The inside, while keeping the classic Binker Barn feel has been updated to include a Gourmet kitchen and a ultra modern master bathroom.

We had a great time staying at Sanjay's place. The highlights for us were the fantastic kitchen, watching the sun set over the ocean from the hot tub in a private setting, a great fireplace. A couple small things to note, however; the place is not quite as big as it appears in the wide-angle verified Airbnb photos, and visitors should be mindful it's a 20 minute walk to the beach, about 1 mile. But altogether, we had a great stay, Sanjay was very helpful and responsive and Sea Ranch is a fantastic destination.

Sean2012-02-26T00:00:00Z

Sanjay is very responsive, answered emails and texts almost immediately. The house is very private and just as described. The view from the back deck and hot tub were wonderful. Thank you for a very relaxing long weekend.

Jodi 2015-06-23T00:00:00Z

perfect for calm long vacation with best friends or/and family. wild animals and birds all around. I wish I could return and live there alone) best sunrise and sundown ever!

Julia2012-09-27T00:00:00Z

My husband, sister, and two young children stayed at this Sea Ranch home for a long weekend and had a lovely time. The yard is gorgeous--a family of deer walked by the full length bathroom window and rabbits hopped around the grass in the morning and evening. We loved the nearby bakery and the hot tub was awesome as well. Our only issue was that the home is a renovated barn and by renovated they mean that it looks like a beautiful home but has the interior insulation of a barn (ie none). This feels important to note for families with young children who may struggle to sleep well even the most quiet new environments or for couples or other groups who don't want to hear everything that is going on in the other rooms or other side of the house. Luckily, our kids did pretty well (I just woke one of them once by trying to do dishes while he napped). Finally, we could not find any cooking supplies beyond salt and pepper. No olive oil, zip lock bags/tupperware for storage, etc. which was frustrating. Otherwise, we really enjoyed our stay!

Sanjay's place is beautiful!! Quiet, scenic and private - it's the perfect getaway from the city. The hot tub provides a relaxing retreat overlooking the ocean. We had an incredible time and would love to go back soon!

I was looking for something quiet and lovely. What Carla and Lee provided was simple, exquisite beauty in a wonderful setting. Thank you for the wonderful weekend.

elliot2015-08-26T00:00:00Z

Lovely house and everything taken care of. No complaints at all. My wife, our two year old and I had no trouble. The house interior is well done - lots of wood in a Japanese style.

Marek2014-11-20T00:00:00Z

My friend and I had a wonderful time ay Lee and Carla's Sea Ranch home. It was tastefully decorated and immaculate from corner to corner. The breathtaking views from inside the home along with the gorgeous outdoor area made this property the perfect oasis for those who needed a break from the daily grind. Lee and Carla were organized and communicative. Steve, the neighbor/caretaker was helpful and kind. This lovely home exceeded all of my expectations. Thank you, Lee and Carla, for sharing your place with the Airbnb community. It is truly a gift to those fortunate enough to make it a part of their Sea Ranch experience.

Katherine2015-03-23T00:00:00Z

A lovely, tranquil setting. We really enjoyed our stay in this well-equipped home which is beautifully and tastefully decorated. Great value, however, a BBQ for grilling steaks and burgers would have been very helpful.

We came for the weekend and loved everything about the house. It was exactly as it was represented. The architecture was special, the house very comfortable and calming and the location was perfect for hiking and walking on the beach. The short drive to Gualala was just right for shopping.. We'll be back soon.

David2016-08-29T00:00:00Z

The hosts made sure that the house was squeaky clean and warm and left a wonderful bottle of wine. This was especially welcome as we arrived on a Friday afternoon after holiday weekend traffic.

Sara2015-05-26T00:00:00Z

Carla and Lees home was spectacular! We loved every minute of our stay and just wish we could stay longer. It was a truly beautiful home with so many wonderful trails right in the backyard. Highly recommend!

Enjoy the ocean and tall trees from big windows from the living room and most of the room in the house. Spacious living room for you to gather in front of the fireplace. Adjacent sunroom to the living room as well.
Kitchen opens to a deck for more room or al fresco dining. Located East of Highway 1 just about a mile from the Sea Ranch Lodge, Moonraker swimming pool/sauna, Black Point Beach and walk to Two Fish Bakery at Sea Ranch. House situated on very large parcel surrounded by tall trees.

This mini estate sits on over 2 acres of land plus adjoining common properties so it feels like 5 acres! Long paved driveway leads you to expansive ocean and forest views. Very private and serene. Watch the sunset from the living room or front yard. Less than a mile to one of three swimming pools and Sea Ranch Lodge.
House is spacious enough for 6 guests sharing 3 bedrooms with 1 king, 2 queen beds. The master bedroom is on the main level, the second bedroom is in the loft, the third bedroom is located below pass the garage with its own access from the front of house, adjacent to the TV room both have ocean views and garden access. There is futon bed in the TV room for additional bed.

Sea Ranch is a great community to live or visit.
Privacy is outmost concern for those who lived here but on the other hand, we are all friendly bunch. The Sea Ranch motto is "live lightly on the land" Please be conscientious of our neighbors privacy and quiet enjoyment. No open fire except for self contained fire pit. Have hose and fire extinguisher handy when lighting fire pit, and common sense please!
No loud music outdoors please it really echo in the neighborhood.

These photos cannot do justice to the beauty of this home and the beauty of the surrounding area! We had the most relaxing time lounging in the house, cooking in the kitchen, reading on the porch and soaking in the hot tub. We really enjoyed the Gualala bluff trail and the San Andreas fault walk. We can also highly recommend local massage therapist Gordon Smith.

Martina2015-07-06T00:00:00Z

Robert was incredibly welcoming and responsive to phone calls and texts. His home is breathtaking and the pictures do not do it justice. We loved sitting in the enclosed sunroom for breakfast and dinner and enjoyed the gorgeous ocean views from everywhere in the house! We can't wait to return!

Amy Marie2015-08-01T00:00:00Z

Stay here if you can! Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. Beautifully lit Christmas trees and tasteful holiday decorations welcomed our arrival and made our stay feel festive. The house is exactly as described, privately located at the end of a quiet cul da sac, surrounded by serene gigantic trees, and very well appointed. Robert was easy to contact if needed and the check in/out procedures were straightforward. It was spotless and inviting with high quality bedding and towels. The wide variety of cookbooks and spices/dish ware made it inviting to cook a meal. A Keurig coffeepot was provided with a few pods. We appreciated the many thoughtful and generous touches such as large bottles of shampoo/conditioner in the showers, a wide variety of books to peruse, board games, a sound system with cds with holiday music preselected out and a woodstove with a few pieces of dry starter kindling and an axe to split more if desired. We arrived in the deluge of a winter storm and lost power along with the neighborhood for the afternoon, but the house was so cozy with the wood stove, we didn't mind at all. We weren't sure how long the power would be off so we chopped a little extra wood and left it for the next guest. As a side note, We have ATT cell service and had no problem with service or internet at the house or in Sea Ranch, but did not have any service north or south on 1 for a good distance. This is one of the few rental houses we have encountered that we would love to revisit. Thank you for sharing!

Lea2015-12-23T00:00:00Z

I could just say ditto to the previous reviews as our family also loved this home and this location. We would also love to return someday. The house is both expansive and cozy. The long distance view of the ocean from the front window, coupled with access to trails along the bluffs, and a night sky filled with stars which we viewed from the hot tub transported us to a natural environment that is unsurpassed in beauty. Inside the home Robert thought through every detail to make us feel welcome. The beds are comfortable, everything was clean and ready for our stay. If we had a question, Robert responded very quickly to us. We cooked and snuggled up to listen to music. In fact, now that I think of it, I think we loved just hanging out in the house so much we did a lot less exploring than would be our usual way. It was our first Christmas with our new granddaughter and it was a perfect place to be. We will cherish the memories from this Christmas.

Kathy2016-01-01T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic stay at Robert's place. The house has a lot of personality but it's also inviting and comfortable with lots of fun, personal touches. Watching the sunset from the living room was quite a treat. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. Great for family or friends to get away and relax.

Ann2016-03-23T00:00:00Z

Robert had everything feeling fresh and lovely. The home was perfect for our trip- private, gorgeous views, turkeys roosting in the trees just outside the window, hot tub in a perfect private garden. It was an incredibly relaxing and stress free experience. We plan to be back!

Troy2015-07-27T00:00:00Z

Robert's house was outstanding and hit all the marks for us. The home had all the necessities we needed, the rooms were clean and the views are outstanding. What a great place and highly recommend to everyone.

An 1,800 square foot post-and-beam Sea Ranch architectural gem in a sunny location away from winds and highway noise, with filtered views to the ocean. Our part-time home, and everyone wants to visit! A perfect retreat from the craziness of the world, offering quiet (apart from the surf and busy wildlife), stars, and a non-stop parade of animals just outside the windows. Hot tub, fiber Internet, HDTV. Easy access to miles of hiking trails, beaches, 3 pools/saunas, tennis courts. Revitalize!

Ours is a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. Please respect our wonderful neighbors! PLEASE NOTE: Our home is a retreat, NOT a party house. If you need to make noise or stay up into the wee hours merry-making, please look elsewhere :)

Lovely luxurious home in a magical rustic setting. Perfect for family vacation. Downstairs, one master bedroom with one queen bed has one full bathroom. Upstairs, one room with one king bed and one room with 2 folding twin beds share a full bathroom. Upstairs, each bedroom has a ladder by which you reach a different loft at a third level, one has an ocean view and the other one has a wood view. The inside house plan is like a tree house that will delight adults and children, every one having its own area. Kitchen utensils, towels and linens are abundant. Coffee, tea, oil, salt, pepper, honey, dish soap, paper towel, bath soap and shampoo are available. You will love your house slippers provided by the owner that will remind you that we need to be thankful for the beauty that nature and wood bring us. You will never forget this unique house in a unique location away from our busy lives.

marie2017-07-14T00:00:00Z

The house is unique and beautiful. Lots of great light, comfortable beds and space. Sylvia is very responsive, friendly and helpful.

Andy2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

What a lovely spot for dreaming, for being together, for staring out the window. The home wraps around you and all feels peaceful. I have never used the word magical before for a home or place, but I can deny that this is magical home. Everything is neat and tidy and all our needs in the house were easily accessible. We felt secure and safe and relaxed. We can not wait to return. You must drop everything and visit Sylvia's place. It's the most perfect, magical spot, I promise you.

Marguerite2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

Sylvia's place is very nice with a unique architecture. It is located on the hillside of Sea Ranch which means it is not near the ocean. The walk to the nearest beach is 1.5 mile using a nearby trail and crossing the Highway 1. It's a 5 min drive to the nearest pool. Nice wild life watching around. It happens very rarely but when it's really hot it's really hard to cool down the house and there are very few flies net. Finally be advised that with the two fold-out Twin beds open you can barely turn in the room.

Veronique2017-09-04T00:00:00Z

The house is just as described. It has a large kitchen for cooking and a small grill outside for bbq! It's a short drive to most of the places you want to see in Sea Ranch. Definitely check out the pool and tennis courts if the weather suits! I'd definitely recommend Sylvia's place and would stay there again.

Marc2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Sylvia's place is simply fantastic. The house itself feels like a treehouse and a luxury cabin rolled into one. Best of all, it does not feel like a hotel; it has all the accommodations one could ask for from an Airbnb, including kitchenware, comfy furniture, a large flat screen TV, a wood burning stove, a hot tub, and a colorful + beautiful backyard garden. We stayed for just two nights, and saw dozens of deer, sunbathing seals along the coast, raccoons, bats, and a wild turkey. Sylvia's home is the perfect combination of privacy in and around the house, and open and far ranging scenery for surroundings. With classic Sonoma beaches so near, and the beautiful spaces inside the home (our favorite being the sunbathing shelf of cushions lining the west-facing windows), you seriously can't go wrong with staying here.

Joel2017-07-30T00:00:00Z

Really enjoyed our stay this memorial long weekend. Such a quaint and beautiful home.

Praveen2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

My partner and I were lucky enough to stay at this spacious and quiet abode. Although we were only there for two nights, it was a perfect place for a retreat, both creative and spiritual. The house and surrounding area are peaceful and inspiring. The extra tall ceilings, variety of sitting areas, and fun lofts lend themselves to contemplating, rejuvenating, and creative work. The window seats were particularly lovely to sit in and look out at the trees, ocean, and critters. The natural wood walls make you feel next to nature. It was so soothing as was the hot tub. Even though it is east of highway one, we could hear the ocean from all the windows. We even thought we heard it better than when we were on the cliff trail near the Sea Lodge. The ocean sounds were a highlight, as well as the star gazing. Sylvia has created an aesthetically pleasing environment. We loved the décor. The kitchen seems to have everything one would need, including empty cupboards for your own food. When we got there, the table was beautifully set for six. The sheets and duvet were high quality and the bed was extremely comfortable. Cotton spa robes were available. The two main bedrooms are on opposite sides of the house and different floors. Wifi works great throughout the house. Sylvia had left lots of information which helped us find our way around. She was also very quick in answering any questions. It was great having access to the Sea Lodge trails for walks along the ocean cliff as well as through the woods. The garden and deck at the house are great places to hang out. We hope to return soon to this magical place. We’ve also thought about coming back with a few more people for a small group retreat. Thank you Sylvia for being such a great host.

My place is less than a mile from the ocean with miles of cliff-side hiking trails, community swimming pools, and golf at Sea Ranch. Whale watching is also fun.
You’ll love my place because of we are nested in the big trees with ocean views from the deck and master bedroom. The house is clean, newly painted, and set up for the traveler in mind.
There is one king bed, one queen bed, a loft with a large daybed and a twin roll-away bed. High Speed Internet here!

This is a beautiful property with high ceilings, new wood floor, and plush carpet. Large windows and sliders give you the perfect view of the woods and ocean below. We have recently re-painted just about the entire inside of the house. There is outdoor furniture at the entrance and on the deck off the dining area to expand your living area. A two car garage is available.

Sea Ranch is a community on the coast dedicated to clean living. There are miles of cliff-side hiking trails. If the woods are your style the trails meander there too. There are three community swimming pools, saunas, tennis courts, educational programs and six beaches. Sea Ranch also operates its own golf course. Of course you are bound to see seals, deer, wild turkey, and sometimes even a whale or bobcat.
The town of Gualala is nearby with many restaurants and two grocery stores. There are several art galleries and further down the road about 20 miles if the Point Arena Lighthouse. There is also a local winery nearby.
Healthcare is available in Gualala.
Don't miss the incredible sticky buns at Three Fishes Bakery (but get there early) or their place at Stewarts Point. YUM. You can always count on great food at Trinks in Gualala too.

What a lovely home to stay in . we were so comfortable and delighted with everything. The kitchen was well stocked and there was extra bedding that we needed to choose from.

Lois2017-07-23T00:00:00Z

This house was just as described and was perfect for our family stay. Cheryl was very quick to respond to any questions we had and was even kind enough to send us a reminder of the entrance details a few days before we arrived. One thing we hadn't planned on was how comfortable the beds were, with great linens. I would definitely recommend this beautiful house and host to family and friends.

Shirley2017-03-19T00:00:00Z

We loved our stay at Cheryl's place in Sea Ranch - was better than even looked in the pictures. Her place is spotless and worked great for our family of 4 - we had everything we needed. Sat on the deck each evening to enjoy the lovely setting and the peace and quiet. Beach is just a quick drive down the hill - beautiful area. Would definitely love to return sometime.

wendy2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Cheryl was wonderful to book with. Everything was organized for booking and checkin. The house is located in a beautiful, wooded area with a view to the ocean. The house is spacious, beautifully decorated with amazing views. We really enjoyed sitting outside on the deck with a glass of wine and watching the sun set.

Heidi2017-08-13T00:00:00Z

Stayed here last year by chance. Chose to come back this year with our children to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. There's a reason for that!

Richard2017-06-06T00:00:00Z

Gorgeous home on endless walking trails. Best location on the property. Black Point Beach and Moonraker Rec Center are steps away. We saw tons of wildlife: deer, bunnies, bats, seals and more!

Such a beautiful, tranquil spot! Particularly clean and well-kept, the bathrooms, bedrooms, etc were all nicely appointed without any clutter -- making for a very relaxing and peaceful stay!! Sea Ranch has great amenities and we enjoyed walking the coast trails in the fog!

Whether people want to gather or spread out--there's room for all. The master suite (king bed) includes own bathroom and separate shower and bath area. Guest room (queen bed) and bunk room have adjoining bathroom. Loft has a trundle bed and 5th bedroom (off of master) has two single beds. Living room with two window seats is off of kitchen and dining room; Rec/TV room is off of bunk room/"kid's wing."

The Sea Ranch is a well known 10-mile coastal development / (URL HIDDEN) "Living lightly on the land," The Sea Ranch is a unique coastal community that was planned explicitly to harmonize with the natural setting and the building traditions of this region.

What an amazing stay we had. Gorgeous view of the ocean and a stunning home to stay at. Our stay was very intimate and romantic. Nestled safely in the woods you won't be disappointed in what this property has to offer while you stay in Sea Ranch. We will most definitely stay again. You'll fall in love and won't want to leave. We ended up actually staying and extending an additional night. Gisele and Rich were extremely flexible with accommodating. Couldn't ask for better host.

Keith Byron2015-03-18T00:00:00Z

Exactly as you describe, big, beautiful house with ocean views. There was more than enough room for everyone to sleep comfortably and the hot tub was great. Perfect kitchen to prepare a meal or just enjoy some wine & cheese.

Kim2016-09-17T00:00:00Z

It was a wonderful place to gather with family and spend a holiday. The place was cozy and the views from the open kitchen was amazing. The kitchen was a great place to gather and make meals. We had a blast here with my family.

Eric2016-02-16T00:00:00Z

The house is a gorgeous place deep in the redwood forests. The main living room had a great view of the forests and ocean, with a couple of cozy reading nooks. The interior of the house was lovely, too -- the pictures don't do it justice! The house was very well-organized and outfitted -- the cast-iron griddle and barbecue were great pluses! Gigi and Rick were very responsive hosts. The location was a great base for exploring the area. We did a bunch of tide-pooling, hiking, and watching the seals by the beach. Coming home to a hot tub under the stars was just icing on the cake.

Kiran2015-06-15T00:00:00Z

When I first arrived at the house, I thought maybe I had the address wrong -- not because the house wasn't as described, but because it is so much more amazing, beautiful, and spacious than I anticipated!! I rented the house because I was coordinating a wedding at the nearby Sea Ranch Lodge, and needed to stay the weekend with my team. The hosts were very accommodating when I wanted to arrive a little early, and they also allowed me to check out late, which was wonderful -- after working so late the night before it was such a gift to be able to sleep in and relax the next afternoon! The house was easy to find, had everything I could have possibly needed for the weekend, and the hot tub was literally the best hot tub I've ever used in my life (there is a section of the tub where you can prop up your feet and experience THREE jet streams per foot!!! In a word, heaven). I loved staying among the woods, and the view of the ocean through the trees was breathtaking. I also felt incredibly safe. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Rebecca2015-08-31T00:00:00Z

We had a terrific time in the house. The pictures on the listing don t do justice to how great the house is. Sea Ranch is an underrated destination. i totally recommend it

Ouriel2014-09-29T00:00:00Z

My family and I had a really wonderful stay in this beautiful home, nestled up in the woods, atop a hill just at the beginning of the Sea Ranch Community. We had a peaceful visit cooking family dinners in a fantastic open and sunlight kitchen, reading in beautiful window nooks (that literally make you feel like you're in a tree house) and relaxing by a cozy fire. It was a special way for my Maine-loyal parents to experience the beauty of the West Coast. Thank you to Gisele and Rick for opening their homes. Sea Ranch is something to experience, especially if you revel in really getting away from it all and immersing in nature (in the most comfortable luxurious of ways :))!

Maura2015-04-21T00:00:00Z

Gisele's house was lovely - lots of room for our family of 7 to spread out. The check in/check out process was easy and flexible, and communication was prompt and clear. The house is up on a hill with great views of the surrounding forest and ocean beyond. Kitchen was huge and well-stocked. The kids loved the foosball table and cozy reading nooks with window seats. We all loved the large hot tub! Close proximity to all the Sea Ranch beaches and just a short drive from Gualala restaurants and beaches. As other reviews have mentioned, you access a couple of the sleeping areas through other bedrooms - it was no problem for us as we're all family, but if staying with other couples or families it might be a little awkward.

This lovely single story home with a private courtyard is close to the ocean, bluff trail, beach, and one of three Sea Ranch recreation centers. A vaulted ceiling great room with ocean views, wood fireplace and window seating is the heart of the activity. Seals and tide pools are a short 10 min walk along the bluff trail overlooking the ocean.

A lovely single story home with great room get together feel in a central location on the Sea Ranch.

The Mariners Retreat is in the Sea Ranch meadow between Highway 1 and the ocean, a level area with a wonderful hiking/running trail along the ocean for miles in both directions. The Ohlson recreation center with tennis courts, pool, and sauna is a minutes walk away along with a hidden beach.

Beautiful and central place! Would stay again.

Sharon2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

Enjoyed our stay. Beautiful house in an excellent location.

Aram2017-07-08T00:00:00Z

The house is even larger and more comfortable than it appears in the photos. It's a wonderful house in a gorgeous setting and the ideal place to relax and enjoy world-class scenery

Michael2017-06-18T00:00:00Z

This home is spacious, clean and centrally located with everything you need. Robert made it easy and responded to inquiries quickly. We'll be back!

Bette2017-06-06T00:00:00Z

Beautiful and spacious home in a gorgeous setting. We walked out the front door and hiked for hours on trails overlooking the ocean, played in tidepools and saw incredible wildlife play below the windows. We'll be back!

veronica2017-07-10T00:00:00Z

Lovely little gem located within ten minutes of Sea Ranch Lodge. Close enough to hear the waves crashing, but still far enough from surrounding neighbors that it felt private. Bob was fantastic with his tips and quick responses. Would love to stay here again.

Jamie2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

Great vacation home with views of the ocean. Comfortably fit a group of 6 adults (3 couples) for the weekend. The house is very spacious, well-decorated, and clean. The kitchen is very well-stocked - great for cooking meals. Robert was a great host and very quick to communicate before the trip.

Jennifer2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

Our comfortable 4 bed 2 bath home is the perfect get away from the ordinary. With accommodations up to ten guests this is an ideal location for a family get-together, business retreat, or reunion with friends.

The home was even more spacious and lovely than depicted on the site. And the surrounding geography is absolutely spectacular! We are a multigenerational family of 10 people - 3 couples and 4 adult "kids" ranging in age from 19 to 87. We took full advantage of the wood supply and had fires in the living room fireplace throughout our stay. We hope to return!

Carrie2016-12-28T00:00:00Z

We had a fantastic time staying at Ocean Pines Lodge. We had three couples, one child, and one infant in our group and the property didn't disappoint. Lee promptly replied to all of our pre-check-in questions via Airbnb. The home is a short walk from Twofish Baking Company which was our source for morning coffee and pastries each morning. We took full advantage of the hot tub, the charcoal grill, and the kitchen which was well-equipped. (Groceries are 10 minutes away in nearby Gualala.) The whole group spent time on both the lovely back deck and in the private front courtyard. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a venue for a group getaway and we've added it to our list of options for future gatherings.

Steve2015-06-07T00:00:00Z

Great house! Would definitely return. Lee and front desk at Sea Ranch were both very helpful.

Christine2015-05-25T00:00:00Z

The location is exactly where nature-loving adventurists would love to subside. The decor is lovely and the space is plenty. The Christmas lights put a heart-warming and welcoming touch to the house. There were plenty of blankets and pillows to counter the cold and the outlay of the house made it comfortable for all the guests. My group and I really enjoyed the comfort of this home.

Unique and funky old family house built by our father 40 years ago. House has ocean views from every room. Very close to beaches and the community center, with great hikes and a hot tub. 7 miles south of Gualala, a small town on the coast.

The Sea Ranch
The Sea Ranch is a unique community association of private homes, sited with careful attention to the natural landscape along a 10-mile stretch of the Sonoma County coast in Northern California. It is internationally known for its distinctive architecture, the sensitivity of its land planning, and community-based stewardship of the natural environment.
The House
This house was built by our dad and has been the scene of many wonderful gatherings of our large extended family since then. We are renting the house out so we can keep it in the family, even though our parents are now gone and we are all busy with our lives. We are trying to improve the house---we recently added bamboo flooring and removed the old carpet in the living area. We are saving for a fireplace insert, as the old fireplace is currently not functional.
Our house is not fancy but it works, which is how we keep the rent low. We don't have nice linens, the furniture and washer/dryer are old, etc. Some people complain about this, so I like to be direct. If you want a professional rental home with this kind of view and access, you can pay as much as $350/night. We are not trying to make a profit, just trying to keep the house in the family and maintain it.
There are two bedrooms and two baths, one in the master suite and the other in separate WC and shower rooms. Every room has an ocean view. There's a small deck off the master bedroom. The living room has a huge "stone" (non-functional) fireplace and foldout sofa bed, and is open to the kitchen and dining area. The loft above the great room sleeps at least two. Please note that you can only access this by climbing a ladder, so it's best to plan on putting elderly/disabled/very young folks elsewhere. It's also difficult to really vacuum up there, so it may not be at your hotel level. I say the place sleeps 6, but we have put as many as 12 in the house depending on the relationships.....kids need less privacy...:-). The kitchen is equipped with a microwave, toaster, coffee maker, but no small appliances like food processors and hand or stand mixers. There is one set of sheets for each bed. There are two small tv's and dvd players.

It's unbelievably gorgeous and quiet! People are relaxed and nice, for the most part. Good for solitude, walking, enjoying nature, enjoying our friends and families.
Facilities and Activities
All Sea Ranch roads, most facilities, and most trails are private, for use only by owners, renters, and their guests. However, members of the public may enjoy The Sea Ranch by visiting the public beaches and access trails. You may also stay at the Sea Ranch Lodge or play golf at the Sea Ranch Golf Links. The public is welcome to visit the Sea Ranch Chapel located at mile marker 55.5 on Highway 1.
Visitors are asked to remember that The Sea Ranch is a community of private homes. Please respect private property and the privacy and peace of the residents.

The Hot Spot is a beach on the Gualala River; fishing in season (license required), picnic tables, BBQ, outhouse
Sea Ranch Golf Course links -018 holes, driving range, carts, green fees charged. One-Eyed Jack’s Playground is located at the center of the Sea Ranch near Shell Beach. It has children’s play equipment, picnic tables, BBQ, volleyball court.
Trails offer the opportunity for a direct experience with a variety of environments. They also provide connections between facilities, beaches, and other points of interest. Carry your pass with you if on the trails.
Trail maps are available for purchase at the Sea Ranch Association.
Bicyclists will find that the Sea Ranch roads offer safe and enjoyable way to get around. Also, some trails are designed for bicycles. This combination makes it possible to traverse most of the length of the ranch without using Highway One.
Public Beaches and Trails
All of the beaches on the coast of The Sea Ranch, like all California beaches, belong to the public. The public can access the beaches at specific points without trespassing on private property. Along Highway 1 at the mile markers indicated, you will find public access parking maintained by Sonoma County. Parking is currently $7. Restrooms are available. From each parking area, you walk a trail to the beach.
Black Point: Steep staircase to 1/4 mile-long sandy beach with dramatic waves. Mile marker 50.85.
Pebble Beach: Small sheltered cove with tide pools. Mile marker 52.29.
Stengel Beach: Small rocky beach with stairs that end on a large rock; waterfall after rains. Mile marker 53.96.
Shell Beach: Sea stacks and tidepools; logs to sit on; ramp to walk small boats to the ocean. Mile marker 55.54.
Walk-On Beach: Wheelchair and stroller accessible, but it's a hard push through sandy spots; a sandy beach. Mile Marker 56.48.
Bluff Trail (3 miles from Walk-On Beach to Gualala Point Park).
Marine Preserve is located within walking distance of the house. This has many tidepools to explore, and a seal rookery.
Shellfish Hotline: (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) This toll-free line maintained by the California Department of Public Health advises the public of quarantines that prohibit the harvesting of shell fish. The quarantines are issued to prevent human illness and death caused by paralytic and amnesic shellfish poisoning. If you are not sure if it is safe to eat harvested shellfish, please call.
Renting
Please Note: All Sea Ranch roads and most trails are private. Visitors not staying on The Sea Ranch must park in the public access parking areas on Highway 1 and stay only on the public trails and beaches. If staying at The Sea Ranch, be sure to display the tag supplied by your rental agency on your vehicle's rearview mirror or dashboard, or your vehicle will be subject to citation and immobilization. Carry your pass with you when hiking the trails. The pass must be shown to enter any of the recreation centers. Guests staying with members should obtain vehicle tags and passes from their host.
If this is your first visit, we'd like to be sure you know that the Ranch is a big place: it's ten miles along the coast, with more than 1,700 houses on the bluffs, in the meadows, on the hillsides, and in the forest. When you arrive, please take a few minutes to look at the house you are staying in so that you will recognize it when you return from a walk. Before you set out on a hike, be sure you know where you are going and how you will return.
Our visitors especially enjoy the hiking trails and the beaches. In addition to the Bluff Trail and hiking trails in the hills and forest, there are four interpretive trails with brochures describing historic and natural features. Trail Maps are available at the Association office located at 975 Annapolis Road. (You are welcome to visit the office, which is open every day 8:30 am to 5 pm, except Sunday, Monday, and major holidays. It's located on Annapolis Road, just past the airstrip and the Cal Fire station).

Three of us stayed in Bonnie's house for a long weekend in March. The house is exactly as it is described in the listing. It is in an extremely peaceful spot looking directly out to sea with no homes obstructing the view. You can hear the ocean from inside the house! We spent a lot of time either down at the beach, which is a very quick walk down the path from the house; in the kitchen watching the water (and the whales!) from the table in front of the picture windows; or on the porch off the master bedroom where there are Adirondack chairs. There are a number of games and puzzles in the well-equipped kitchen, the beds are comfortable, and, above-all, the home was very clean. It does get chilly inside in the evenings and the heaters in the main rooms did not warm the place, so be sure to pack a pair of warm socks and a sweater, or be more brave than we were about lighting your own fire in the fireplace! We can't wait to go back!

Elizabeth2015-03-16T00:00:00Z

This place was awesome! Super relaxing, quiet, and beautiful! Bonnie responded to our questions quickly and everything at the house was as described. We enjoy being away from the hustle and bustle of cities and towns and love being surrounded by nature. The Sea Ranch was the perfect place for that. We were there midweek and it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. We ran on the numerous ocean side trails enjoying the views and watching the wildlife and of course saw some amazing sunsets. We will definitely visit The Sea Ranch again!

Bonnie's place was as advertised, and better. Lovely home, stunning views, and great location close to trails, beaches and rec center. Bonnie was a very helpful and generous host. Highly recommend staying here if you plan to visit Sea Ranch.

We only had a short stay, so I hope we get back again. So peaceful, such a great location, you can hear and see the ocean all the time. This house has everything you want when you go out to the coast, including a great kitchen and fire place.

This 2 bedroom/2 bath house is beautifully located among redwood trees just east of Highway One. It is quiet with sounds of distant breaking waves, miles of hiking trails many starting from the house. Use of Sea Ranch pools, tennis courts also permitted. Perfect for one or two couples, BBQ on back deck, 1250 sq ft home. Guests need to bring their own sheets and towels and water conservation is very important. No pets.

This is a beautiful sanctuary in stunning Sea Ranch. We were traveling with our young son and one other family. The house was a perfect setup, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and one lovely central living / dining space. The house was only a short drive from the beach and trails. The hot tub was a lovely treat and great way to relax after a day out walking. Robert was an excellent host, prompt at replying to questions, and with a detailed plan for check in and check out. Highly recommend!

Priya2017-06-11T00:00:00Z

Robert's home is lovely and cozy. It has a really neat decor and almost every window offers a beautiful view of trees. The kitchen is well stocked with tools for cooking, probably more than almost any other Airbnb I've seen. The hot tub is a lovely bonus. In addition, the bed was so comfortable, we were looking at the mattress to see who made it. You do need to pack out your own trash and recycling, which is not a big deal. I highly recommend this Airbnb.

We provide bed linens and towels free of charge.
Remember this is our family home and that Sea Ranch is a community of private homes. Please respect ours and the private property of others around you.

Great house that my family thoroughly enjoyed. The views, the walk to the secluded beach and the game room were the highlights for my family that came to visit. Would def recommend to others. Just only wish we stayed longer, maybe next time.

Ronald2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

'WOW'
YouTube video: Sea Ranch Indigo Tide Video 2000
From the moment you arrive at this luxurious, secluded home, you will be surrounded by 1.5 acres of breathtaking, unobstructed oceanfront panoramic view with white water and rocky cliffs.

Rare 1.5 acre lot with true Ocean Bluff right off the deck.

Exclusive neighborhood with no trails and people looking in.

This is the second time I rented this property with Brian. He was extremely helpful, and the house was just as incredible as the first time. All the amenities needed for a comfortable stay, a decorative style that makes you feel at home, and incredible views all around, make this home just magical.

Ed2015-06-21T00:00:00Z

Brian was very helpful walking us through the house via phone call when we arrived. The location is amazing, close enough to town to pick up some items but far enough away that you feel you are on your own. Kitchen was well stocked and the host even left coffee, chocolates and sandwiches for us to pick up at a nearby deli, which was very thoughtful and something nobody else has done for us. We even saw dolphins on one of the days we were there. There are cute baby bunnies that live on the property. Plenty of room for 2 couples, comfortable, relaxing and beach home feel. Best part was the deck overlooking the ocean with Adirondack chairs and lounge chairs in the evening.

Karin2015-08-13T00:00:00Z

This is our second year at Indigo Tide and absolutely not our last. We have an annual pilgrimage planned for the indefinite future. Brian is the consummate host, available and responsive to anything you need, and always wanting to ensure a perfect stay. The house is a dream ... Not only the perfect bluff location (many excellent bottles of wine enjoyed on the cliff deck) but the gorgeous exterior and interior design and thoughtful touches that always make us feel at home. My parents joined this time and they are new believers. Thank you Brian for another perfect stay.

Tina2016-08-22T00:00:00Z

Fabulous, amazing place. A perfect way to spend our 30th wedding anniversary! Couldn't have asked for better accommodations. Host was available but not imposing. Highly recommended!!!

cynthia2017-06-21T00:00:00Z

Despite visiting Indigo Tide during the worst storm in recent history (including mudslides, high winds, heavy rain, flooding, and power outages), we are now suffering from acute morning-after sadness from leaving one of the most magical places we've ever visited. The weather only made the beautiful experience of staying in this house that much more intense, with dramatic waves continuously crashing safely at the bottom of the cliffs. We drove almost every ocean-side road in Sea Ranch, and found no other property that compares. Brian was the perfect host, and he immediately made us feel like family friends. He thoroughly acclimated us to the house (by telephone), and was readily accessible for all questions and issues throughout our stay. He even proactively secured a generator after the storm knocked out the power lines to the southern half of Sea Ranch in the middle of the night. It was all arranged even before we woke up and realized that the power was out! Besides relaxing and staring endlessly at the ocean, some of our favorite Sea Ranch experiences were playing golf at the Sea Ranch golf links (on the one semi-dry day), attempting to find bowling ball beach in the middle of a storm, and listening to local speakers at the Four Eyed Frog Bookstore and the Point Arena Lighthouse (see the "Weekly Events Calendar" of the Independent Coast Observer (URL HIDDEN) For more to do, see the Public Page of the Sea Ranch Association website (URL HIDDEN) (Home - Public Page)). We couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity to stay at Indigo Tide, and hope to visit again soon.

Sherry2017-02-21T00:00:00Z

Brian was an attentive and amazing host. The house has everything you could ask for and is very clean. The beds are comfortable and the furniture was well selected and very easy to relax on. The view is the best you'll ever see on the California coastline. Book this listing, you won't be disappointed.

Joseph2015-03-15T00:00:00Z

This is the most exceptional home and location we have experienced. The views, peace and beauty the property provided far met out expectations. The host was available and kind. The home was filled with love and charm and this will be top on our list of yearly adventures. You will not regret making this your next destination!

Fusion2017-08-20T00:00:00Z

We had an amazing time at Brian's home. The house is fantastic, beautiful, well appointed, and very comfortable. Each item around the house was unique and special, we could feel the care and love that has been put into the house. The kitchen was the BEST equipped of any house we have ever stayed in so it was fun to cook there and watch the waves out the window. The beds were comfortable, and sleeping to the sound of the waves was soothing. Brian was a great host, responding to questions quickly via phone or text, helped us get familiar with the house as soon as we arrived via a phone call that covered all our questions. The absolute privacy makes this a very special way to experience Sea Ranch. We can't wait to come again.

Situated on a breathtaking bluff, Vista Del Mar sleeps eight adults and boasts broad, unobstructed ocean views from every room. You’ll love the elegant open floor plan, soaring exposed-beam ceilings and large gourmet kitchen. Then head out back to the enormous deck overlooking the crashing waves. We encourage all guests (especially first-timers) to contact us directly via the “Contact Host” button below.

Renowned architect Elee Tsai designed our stunning home – just a stone’s throw from the water’s edge -- to be a reflection of our soul’s connection with heaven and earth. Absorb the powerful force of the waves against the black rocks…feel (and smell) the ocean breeze on your face…this is The Sea Ranch at its absolute best.
Recently remodeled, Vista Del Mar features an elegant open floor plan with soaring exposed-beam ceilings and warm wood detailing throughout. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, it’s a short 10-minute walk to the Ohlson Recreation Center and beach where you can swim, play tennis and enjoy a relaxing sauna.
Musicians love taking in our glorious sunset view while playing the Steinway Baby Grand piano – and everyone enjoys the comfy window seats, cozy fireplace and wood-burning stove. Movie fans can curl up in front of the large flat-screen TV (with DirectTV satellite) enhanced by the dramatic surround sound experience of our Bose Acoustimass entertainment center. And those that can’t entirely escape the outside world will appreciate the free nationwide phone service.
The chef(s) in your group will flip over the large, well-equipped gourmet kitchen with its exquisite Honduran Mahogany cabinetry. Grill masters and BBQ mavens always appreciate our high-quality, outdoor grill (with direct propane connection). Overlooking the crashing ocean waves, the spacious 1600 sq. foot deck gives everyone plenty of space to relax and unwind in our classic Adirondack chairs. If you visit in spring or late fall, keep your eyes peeled for seasonal migrating whales. After dinner, why not gaze at the moon in the star-filled sky while enjoying a relaxing soak in our immaculate 50-jet spa tub (which can be closed off for complete privacy).
With its spacious 2400 square feet, Vista Del Mar’s three bedrooms and loft offer comfortable sleeping for eight adults. The home’s warm, welcoming ambiance – complemented by tasteful furnishings – creates the perfect escape for relaxation and enjoyment of nature’s beauty. We also provide bed linens and towels free of charge.
Please be aware that because Vista Del Mar is located so close to the bluffs (and features natural redwood paneling easily damaged by curious little hands), you must personally inquire about bringing
children under age 10.

The Sea Ranch is a unique coastal community, explicitly planned to harmonize with the natural setting and the building traditions of this region. Our first recorded visitors – the Pomo Indians –lived over the first ridge to the east and made seasonal treks to the coast to gather kelp, seaweed and shellfish. Today’s visitors come here to experience our beautiful ocean, seasonal foliage and wildlife. Whether you’re into golf, hiking, swimming, biking or just leisurely strolling through town and stopping for a bite to eat, there’s no shortage of outdoor activities to enjoy.

John was such a gracious host! We felt completely welcome in his home. The pictures don't do this place justice - imagine waking up to 360 views of the ocean! We drove up from San Francisco with a group of girlfriends and had such a relaxing weekend - it's the perfect place to detach. One tip if you haven't driven highway 1 before - take it slow and expect winding roads. John was even nice enough to find a necklace that my friend had left behind and send it back to her. He's truly one of the most generous hosts you'll encounter. We can't wait to go back!

Vista Del Mar is a comfortable, spacious house, perfectly situated on the Sea Ranch clifftops. We had a great time enjoying the beautiful space, hiking along the coast path, enjoying the hot tub, grilling, and drinking coffee in the sunshine. Recommended without hesitation, and we hope to come back again.

John was tremendously accommodating and helpful during our stay. We were greeted with a gift basket of goodies and the home is absolutely stunning. The view alone is worth the stay! But home itself was a perfect get-a-way for our group of friends. We did not want for anything as the home is fully equipped and stocked. I highly recommend Vista Del Mar for your trip to the utopia by the sea, Sea Ranch.

My family and I had a lovely time at Vista Del Mar. The home is gorgeous and the views amazing. From the thoughtful gift basket we were greeted with to the warm fireplace, everything felt very inviting. The outdoor space is amazing for entertaining. Walking the trail which runs along the coast we noted none of the neighbors in a mile in either direction had such an expansive deck. This was important to us as the eight of us wanted to spend as much time as possible outside. The spa is great too. You have the ability to forward shades for a completely private soaking experience, or leave them open to the beautiful views of the ocean. We saw a ton of wildlife right in the backyard - deers, a fox, a bobcat, whales and seals. There's a beach less than 100 yards from the house, however the stairs led to a rock which had to be scaled down to reach the bottom. This was a bit too risky for two of us who are pregnant, but luckily there's another beach less than 1/4 mi south which had stairs leading all the way to the sand. We all had fun stacking stones and beach combing. If your looking for a great home to host a family vacation look no further. We would definitely rent from John again next time we decide to escape to the north coast :)

Staying at John's beautiful Sea Ranch home was something I will never forget! The home was perfectly located in the center of Sea Ranch, close to the Lodge, Recreation Centers, beaches, bluff trails and Gualala. The views of the ocean from literally every room were breathtaking. Even the hot tub had sweeping views of the California coastline. I took a group of friends for my 50th birthday and the accommodations were perfect- clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated, well appointed kitchen, nice linens, plenty of parking. But most importantly, our host, John, went a bore and beyond to make us comfortable. He communicated everything prior to arrival and during our stay. He was kind and welcoming and we cannot wait to return to this special and unique home!!! Thank you, John!!!

WOW! You will love this beautiful home, its setting on a cliff above the Pacific, its panoramic sunsets, walking trails out your front door, the large deck for lounging and observing whales, seals, shore birds, and well-chosen amenities, including a well-equipped kitchen, to make your stay most comfortable and pleasurable. This is a premier property at Sea Ranch that has it all!!!

Location, location, location!
CLEF is conveniently in the center of Sea Ranch, just a stone's throw from Stengel Beach and the Olson Pool and Recreation Center equipped with tennis courts, sand volley ball court and half basketball court.
It boasts a private garden hot tub and views of the ocean. There are chaise lounges in the private garden and an outdoor furniture set around a gas fire pit on the deck to enjoy.
A truly idyllic retreat!

Every room in CLEF is spacious and open. The ceilings are high, and the atmosphere is clean, modern and minimal. The garden is completely fenced in for privacy and the hot-tub is open year round. It is the perfect space to find relaxation and replenishment.

Wild Iris, where CLEF is located is a beautiful, quiet, private cul-de-sac. Sea Ranch trails can be found just outside the house. The Olson Rec Center and Pool and Stengel Beach, Sea Ranch Library and the White Barn are all located within 1-5 minutes of CLEF. Neighbors are quiet and kind and we expect the same from all of our guests.

I had never been to Sea ranch and it was quite lovely, quiet beautiful location. Very relaxing! The house is actually more lovely than the photos show--the master bedroom is huge.

Our stay was comfortable and pleasant with ample room and peaceful surroundings. The trails throughout the surrounding area and the beautiful views as well as the home amenities were great! Mimi was friendly and responsive to all queries. We hope to return!

Patricia 2017-05-29T00:00:00Z

We had a great relaxing stay at CLEF House! Great hiking out the front door along the ocean front and up in the foot hills.

Brian2016-07-28T00:00:00Z

CLEF House is absolutely beautiful -- in fact the photos don't quite do it justice. Comfortably furnished, well appointed, and situated along the rugged California coast at Sea Ranch, it is a fabulous place to stay.

Kathryn2016-07-19T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home in a gorgeous community by the ocean! The landscaping up to the house in the front yard is full of succulents and other water conscious plants, beautiful. I would stay here again in a heartbeat! well designed and updated with great natural light. Nicely stocked kitchen and a great upstairs playroom/entertainment room. We took daily walks to the ocean, used the community pool, did some fishing...got away from the fast pace of life...and we all loved it. this house is waking distance to a few beaches.

Amy2016-06-01T00:00:00Z

Great place for a stay at sea ranch. Mimi's house was just as described. Very clean. User friendly. An easy walk to Stengel Beach. Also, Mimi was a pleasure to work with both before and during our stay. Highly recommend for a visit to Sea Ranch.

Michael2017-07-05T00:00:00Z

Had a wonderful stay at Clef house. Amazing location and beautifully furnished. Have stayed at sea ranch many times but this is my favorite!
